BCM and datacenters

We are building a new datacenter. Please let me know what could be my role as BCM manager for the company. Are there any benchmark or framework I should follow?

Answer: As a BCM manager your main role would be ensuring that the results of Business Impact Analysis and the chosen strategies for business continuity are considered in the construction of the new datacenter. This may mean location definition, infrastructure features (e.g., redundant electrical circuits, use of fire proof material, etc.). Additionally, you have to ensure the documentation and testing of business continuity plans related to the most probable disruption incidents.

Specifically about datacenters I'd suggest the standard TIA 942. It can provide you recommendations regarding datacenter features to ensure different levels of availability that can fulfill your needs. You can buy this standard at this link: https://global.ihs.com/doc_detail.cfm?&input_search_filter =TIA&item_s_key=00414811&item_key_date=860905&input_doc_number=942&inp ut_doc_title=&org_code=TIA#product-de tails-listse of fire proof material, etc.).
